Grooms, your pre-ceremony hours matter just as much! Getting ready should feel relaxed but intentional — a time to reflect, share a few laughs with your groomsmen, and prepare for the biggest commitment of your life.
Choose a tidy, masculine space with plenty of light. A neat environment will make dressing easier and your photos that much more impactful.
Make sure your suit is steamed and accessories — cufflinks, tie, boutonnière — are all laid out beforehand.
Leave plenty of time for grooming and dressing, especially if you’re having photos taken.
Enjoy a hearty breakfast and keep water on hand (a celebratory drink or two is fine, but pace yourself!).
Write your vows or reread them quietly.
And finally, take a quiet moment alone. It’s the calm before an unforgettable storm — and you’ll want to be fully present.
